June Dairy Days

Last Saturday Bella and I went home to Tomah for my little sister's graduation party and also June Dairy Days. For June Dairy Days every county in Wisconsin has a dairy breakfast which is hosted by a local farmer. This year, the one in our county was hosted at a farm right down the road from my Mom's house. So...we went and had a great time! It was Bella's first time getting to see all the farm animals and she loved it! Jon (my brother) was volunteering with the rest of his fire department to help cook the food for the breakfast, so not only did we get to see all the animals we got to spend time with Grandma, Jon and his girlfriend Lynn.

Here are the pictures that Grandma took for us that morning.

Before Jon went to the breakfast he came out to the house to run some errands for Mom and also to say hi and see Bella.

When we got to the breakfast there were tons of people there and the line for food was pretty long so we started out by walking around the farm. We stopped to get some ice cream cones and then went into the barn. Here's Bella, Lynn, and I with the cows.

We got to get really close and Bella even got to touch one of the cows ears!

Then we went on a hay ride around the field. Here's a couple of pictures of us in the wagon!

Then we got to stand in front of the wagon and look at the horses! They were really big and pretty.

Next to the hay rides they had a little petting zoo, so we went to do that. Here's Bella and I looking at the miniture horse named Cricket.

And she got to pet the llamas fur, it was very soft.

They also had little baby birds. There were geese, ducks, mallards, and baby chicks. This is one of the baby mallards. They were so cute and soft!

Bella almost grabbed the little bird. I don't think it would have been good if she had actually gotten a hold of it though!

Here's Mom with the baby pigs. They were taking a nap together and she can't ever pass up a picture with some cute little pigs!

Here we are petting the goats.

Then on the walk back to the breakfast there was a tractor sign that we just had to have a picture by!

Uncle Jon held Bella while the girls ate breakfast. The had a great time playing together.

And right before we left we went to see the big tractors. I really wanted a picture of Bella on one! She did okay, but I'm not sure she really liked being up so high without being able to see me.

So, needless to say, we had a great time. It was fun for Bella (and all of us) to get to see all the animals and the breakfast tasted SO good.
